”I have a question of practicality” is exactly like “We need to evacuate”🤣🤣🤣
YES.
💯I came here to make that exact comment! 🤣🤣🤣DITTO
Omg YES
I came for this comment 😂
Also, love on Mak, it's not easy to be the youngest is the room ❤️
Omg I was thinking this too! 🤣
i don't think you guys understand the joy i get when alayna eagerly sits up straight and explains something we all experience in a cohesive, scientific way
Right? This is exactly why her podcast will be SO good!!!
@@RowanWolf22 exactly!! I can't wait for it🤩🤩
Hermione vibes 😂❤
That’s called the Alayna Joy. 😀
MAK! I shouted at you. Don't worry about it, I was *ALSO* nervous to talk to you, and couldn't figure out how to approach you guys other than shout "BABY BROTHER" at you. Together, we made a socially awkward situation possible. Go us!
It's totally reasonable to be scared by a stranger shouting at you! Sorry for scaring you. I wish I had the presence of mind to approach you like a normal human being! Next time I shall.
3:03 “How is your sister?” “Ashley has risen” 😂
Ashley couldn't be more dad, Alayna couldn't be more mom and Mak couldn't be more hot baby teenage brother 🤣 Best episode ever, I am living for the chaos.
Alayna is deserving of an apology! 🗣 "We keep up the facade that we care about you and pay us for this privilege" She was listening with her EARS
THANK YOU
@@AlaynaJoyOfficial😮 u helped me so much with figuring out my sexuality. Thank you so much for your content
Reparations!
Mak and Ashley were the ones gaslighting! 😂
Ashley saying "you have like a high iq but you don't have knowledge" goes so hard
This is the best parasocial relationship that I have haha
Absolutely 😂
so true
Lolol same
Alayna saying “he’s had enough, honey” unlocked something in me
Ashley your german accent is a hilarious bit but Mak’s pronunciation of “schnitzel” was actually quite incredible, she won that round with one word
mak 😭😭😭 thank you for giving the autistic himbo lesbian representation we need, I've never been confused by the elevator buttons but I have definitely had many absolute goober moments and I feel you on a spiritual level
“you were raised by parents who don’t believe in vaccines or food” Ashley was so real for that and damn it hurts having antivax parents 😂
Did we all?? Just fall in love with Alayna’s fiance?? Just because of her commentary?! 😂❤
YESSS
i legit had a spit take when mak said "guys, i have a question of practicality" 😂
I'm truly obsessed with Mac today 🤣🤣🤣 I can not stop cry-laughing
Mak telling Ashley she loves her before hanging up the phone is so sweet ❤😂
The in person energy is so silly goofy haha. I feel like Mak and Alayna feed off of in person energy (well so does Ashley but I think she is better at bringing that energy whenever she is 'on') and they both got sassier than normal and it was hilarious especially with Ashley's normal attitude. They met Ashley where she always is
alayna is genuinely so smart like that girl just says the wisest things
"i have a question of practicality" genuinely had me spitting out my water i have not laughed so hard in a LONG time
mak's reaction at 24:24 was so unexpected and seemingly out of character that it made me jump
alayna's gf is so funny bro 😭🤣
Honestly, Ashley talking about how my generation is eliminating social interactions kinda made me realize that I could probably improve my social anxiety and social skills despite being autistic, if I simply... talked to people. Lol.
EDIT: OH MY GOD, I didn't know about the elevator buttons either for the same reasons as Mak!
Ashley yelling at Mak to call her when things go wrong and the quick "love you" before hanging up remind me of my own relationship with my chosen sibling, I love this so so much.
Love when you three are together in person and it is a total bonus getting to hear Alayna's girlfriend's commentary!
lmaoo i didn’t even notice Ashley was there at the start i fully thought she was off camera somewhere
I know I thought it was a pillow with her hat on it 😅
samee
I’m not Persian but I’m middle eastern (Lebanese) and we don’t really wear engagement rings after we get the wedding band either. Mostly because the engagement ring is just fancier so there are fewer occasions to wear it. Also, many of us wear engagement rings that have been passed down in the family for generations as opposed to buying a new one. So, losing or damaging the ring carries a bit more weight.
As someone who moved across the country “for” my boyfriend after only 9 months of dating I have a strong opinion on the listener question.
You can make the move, but only if you independently visit the place you’re moving and decide you’d sincerely love living there, even if you were on your own. Also - DO NOT LIVE TOGETHER, at least at first. Make a goal of establishing your own independent lives there. Try to find friends of your own and a job that you’re excited about. If you can’t meet these criteria I’d rethink the move.
This is how I approached my move and it went as well as it possibly could’ve - we’ve been here for almost 5 years, we’re married, and I’m pregnant with our first baby :)
That is such good advice. I went from long distance to living together and I think it was part of the reason we broke up. It's important to actually date each other!
oookay I have a feeling that Ashley and Alayna don't realize that being neurodivergent sometimes makes people not understand unofficial rules and seemingly logical or obvious things like the elevator buttons - like I totaly get that, to me, there are just two buttons and some arrows and it could mean a bunch of things, including what Mak said
I was looking for this comment. thanks for wording it better than my hurt feelings could rn haha
fr this comment is regulating my heartbeat
Ashley absolutely losing her mind at 42:09 bc Mak doesn't know how elevators work LMAO
it was actually so sweet the way Ashley got up and said MAK YOU CALL ME ANYTIME YOU NEED ME ALRIGHT YOU DONT KNOW ANYTHING. SAY IT.
THAT WAS INCREDIBLE
Ashley is 100% insisting on being Mak's real life dad here 😂
Ashley your "don't you bring up apple maps with me" tone was very Frank Costanza from Seinfeld, specifically in the "you want a piece of me?" scene with Elaine, even more specifically the bloopers from that scene. It's so funny watching Julia Louis-Dreyfus trying to get through that.
YES.
My grandfather would push the button based on where the elevator needed to go to get to him rather than where he wanted to go. Like if he was on the 1st floor he would hit down because the elevator needed to go down to him
To the listener question, do the long distance route for a bit. Don't try to shoehorn things into working out. I moved away 3 months into my relationship with my now spouse. We were long distance for nearly 2 years (thankfully, drivable, but I was in school, so I had limited time). We've been together 24 years now. Here's what I've learned from my own and other's relationships to know if it's worth continuing the relationship & moving in together (and both partners should consider this stuff!):
-Do you want to share the mundane with them (think about doing the dishes, cooking, cleaning, waking up sick, etc. All those boring, frustrating and irritating tasks & events that everybody goes through, are those things better when they are with you?)
-What do you REALLY know about them? What do they REALLY know about you? After 9 months, you're probably around the end of NRE (new relationship energy). It usually lasts between 6-12 months. If you're seeing things as you want them to be, instead of how they are, that's NRE. Don't move in if either party is still there.
-Have you encountered at least one stressful moment that came from outside the relationship? Things like, an illness or death in the family, financial struggle, etc.? How did you both handle it? If you haven't had that happen yet, how confident are you in how the other will react to something of that nature?
-Have you had an argument or fight that started from inside the relationship? How did you both handle it? Are your communication styles similar? If there hasn't been an argument, is it because you're still in NRE or is somebody holding back to not upset the other?
-I always take signs of questioning a relationship as a point of concern. If the relationship has felt solid, but doesn't look it on paper, where's the disconnect between that? Is it for superficial/out of your control things like family background, religion you were raised in, financial status, etc.? Are the things on paper things that really matter or not?
-Have you had at least one difficult conversation with your partner? This may be about a trauma, an emotional realization or struggle, anything that is a sensitive topic, really. Did you feel supported? If it was your partner bringing it up, how did you feel?
These are some big things to look at. It's so critical to be able to step outside yourself and give things a critical look. This is a big choice (I've lived in 3 states, moving long distance isn't easy!), but if you can take an objective look at things and give it some time and space, you'll know what the right move is. And, it sounds like your family is there to catch you, if it doesn't work out. Having that can make taking a leap of faith easier. I only advise that you at least try to make it an informed leap of faith! Best of luck!
god I wish they read this, this is so thought out
I'm in love with Alayna's fiance 😍 and yeah, Ashley is soooooo right when she said they were right for each other. I love the vibe that she gives for this episodes.
At the first minut I thought Ashley was a pillow 😂😂
M2
This was cute and tiny but also loud and big. Also very high practicality. 😂
I need you all to move to the same city immediately. Love the podcast always, but these where you’ve actually been together have been the best chemistry I’ve ever seen between people 🤣🤣 the parasocial friendship is so real because I’m so convinced I could easily fit into the group now
I love all three of you in the same room. These last two episodes (and Alayna on The Other Podcast) have had me giggling. I so regret missing the show/meet and greet in Detroit last year!
Mak is fucking hilarious, sincerely.
39:31 this was so “um actually 🤓☝️” of mak hahaha
LOVE the in-person chemistry!
you guys always speak of the wildest things when yall get together, its like yall forget that we are hearing what yall saying and that is sooo funny to me, chaos multiplied for 100
okay, this episode might even be my favourite yet, is definitely up there,...so many good ''bits'' ... im gonna need a regular ''accent-off'' and series of, multiple reaction takes per episod. The nmost entertaining episode for sure
Ash retaking the scene was so funnny
I read the comments before, but I STILL spit my food when "I have a question of practicality" was announced
"It wasn't german though because it crossed so many boundaries" I'd say the germans have crossed a decent amount of boundaries in their history
Alayna explaining science while validating. I honestly really enjoyed the psych lesson ✨ Ashley’s freak out about Alayna’s news was so sweet and fun!
NO WAYYY WE’RE BLESSED !!!
This is by far my favourite episode yet
Mak is so random and fantastically funny and I'm here for it!
33:30 - the three states of gaming: Ashley: it's a great game. Alayna: Never played. Mak: I hate that game.
Represent! (sorry it was just too perfect not to comment on.)
Mak: My accents are on fire today.
My brain... well a dumpster fire is on fire... so... truth.
A: Deep South - me to Mak just talk naturally.
My partner & I moved in together in under 9 months of dating each other, and we're still together & living together 10 years later. We're not engaged or have plans to get married, but still very much committed to each other. ❤️ Sometimes you just feel like it will work and have to trust your intuition!
Definitely not because you're from Missouri. I'm from Missouri and know how to operate an elevator. You're just sheltered, Mak. And it's okay, your brain will stay healthy because you'll constantly learn new things!
Mak with her glasses on her head squinting at the screen to read the question was sooo funny 🤣
As an Italian, we don't talk like super Mario in real life ahahahah
I have to do Maks “love you” thing with my grandma or she won’t say it either 😂
Im 30 years old and only learned the elevator button thing this year. I was out here pushing any button and hoping for the best!!
This whole episode was so wonderful and made me smile and laugh constantly. Thank you all for making such a friendly and inviting space on the internet. Also Mak was on one for this episode and I loved every minute of it.
alayna's menonite accent was insanely accurate???
Feelings dont care about your facts
30:00 when you realized she was understanding things wrong and you had to always explain and make yourself clear that it wasnt a relationship you should end things with her sooner, cause she was not going to accept it
I didn't think I could smile any harder. Sending love and a giant hug to all fellow cousins in the comments, these in person episodes are the best!! They also tend to remind some of us how much we crave real human connection in this measly parasocial relationship- so just remember babes; there'll always be someone out there that loves you, even if you're in a position right now where you can't reach out and just ask for a hug because you want one or need one. My hope is that everyone here gets to a point in their life where they can, and receive that love with open arms. If you're also a listener to _"the other pod that shall not be named"_ that was essentially my gay thought for the day :]
Stay ratified
I hate to be the 70th comment but Ashley’s Italian accent was actually kinda good! It’s an Italian that’s trying to speak as an American that’s trying to speak Italian but as an Italian in Italy I approve if it.
We stan the hotel room content!!
Mak reading the questions like they’re on an exam she didn’t study for always makes me laugh😂
Can confirm I have been pushed to TH-cam
I'm 30 this year and I thought exactly the same about the elevator as Mac did. IT MAKES SENSE, OKAY?
Ashley's Italian sounded like Borat 😂😂😂
Okay but the adverts I get when I'm watching the pod on TH-cam are WILD, Spotify is better in that regard but I wanted to see for myself the hotel situation 😂
A sequel!!!!! So grateful for another live podcast episode!!!!!😍😍😍 Love all around each of you💞
As a former recruiter, I can say that it's really difficult to get hired for a job when you are across the country. Unless you use a local address, you have given recruiters (with some exceptions) an excuse to not consider you. They assume they will have to pay relocation or travel expenses for interview or that you aren't really serious about the move (and might try to make the position remote). You should be on the ground for your own sake -- understanding commute time & traffic for example). Considering it's now almost June, you are in competition with recent grads who have just dropped into the job market.
The accent-off was the funniest thing yall have ever done😂😂😂 I loved the deep south ones from both especially, I lost it at "socially liberal, fiscally conservative" so accurate
This is literally my favourite podcast ever since I discovered it, I always look forward to Wednesday mornings❤
Hotel episodes are unmatched 💜
I had headphones on and at 19:35 and threw my head phones across the room cause it sounded like someone was talking right behind me , that shit scared me so bad LOL
I love Mak so much, very relatable
I understand Mak about elevator buttons. In my country we have only one
I was struggling to get out of bed this morning, but seeing this video got me up and ready for the day🎉
"we should stop" love u mak
Hurray! Loving the face to face ❤
I moved across country for someone I never met in person & stayed there for nearly 10 years. That being said it wasn't a healthy relationship & I probably would have left sooner if I had been in a better spot. So I say yes try it out. But have some guidelines to how long you'll give yourself & things that aren't acceptable or that you won't put up with. I ended up going back home & have the best relationship & life now, so that is always an option. You aren't stuck & as long as you have guidelines for yourself to make sure you're happy, it can't hurt to try!
for the person potentially moving to Norva: i’m in the VA area and i’m not sure what entry level job you’re looking for but working at starbucks is a great choice! They pay for ur degree u can get an ASU degree online fully covered by starbucks u only pay for books, and if you end up moving back home you can transfer to any other starbucks in the country it’s a process but doesn’t take that long as long as you’ve worked for the company at least a month or so i forget how long exactly. If you’re in your 20s it’s the time to make mistakes and take chances as cheesy as that is, so you should do it & plan specific trips and times of the year for u both to go visit your family.
they also pay for therapy!
Mak kinda mumbled through it, but they said "entry level engineer job"... so not Starbucks lol
@@chrisoneill325 oh dang my bad
this is your funniest episode as of yet, I love you guys ❤❤
to be fair, I had the same issue with elevators as Mak! So I am here with you! I understand and I also only learned this 3 days ago... 😂😂😂
This is pure chaos and I love it!❤😂
I need merch with “I have a question of practicality” 🎉
So funny love you guys best part of my day ❤ my favorite take was excited Ashley getting up on the bed 😂 doing a tom cruise and im Irish and I'm honoured 🤙
Better help is a terrible company that violates your privacy, it's too bad a future therapist is endorsing them.
the elevator buttons have always confused me🤣💀
as an Aussie, between Mak's kiwi -esque impression and Ashley sounding like... a pissed off cat?
I'm sorry but I'd have to go with Ashley 😹
LOL, why is it that people with north american accents almost always go straight to the kiwi accent?
@@kyoooooooooooooon I know it's always kiwi!?!?! :) I generally think Americans jump to either kiwi or pommy because they're more distinct than the aussie which sits in between the two. Similar to how aussies might use a deep southern, new yorker or brooklyn accent because it's more distinctive than others.
@@yeahokay...actuallynah ahhh that makes a lot of sense
i always watch the podcast on youtube and i love it
Perfect betterhelp ad placement
Alena, I did a Masters of Public Administration and now I am in my second year of Master in Social Work! You can do it!!!
I’m from Missouri and I know how an engagement ring and elevator work lol.
In my mysterious county in Ireland we claim to have no discernable accent while you are hearing it.
new pod during night shift🤩
You guys know what's slough. You guys are good.
this was my favorite episode ever
Ashley's italian accent IS good, i feel like it's just better than Alayna and Mak's american idea of an italian accent 😂
Wow I've never been this early! Love you guys
2:06 am where I am and ready for the pod😎
